TRANSLATON

(Refrain): Oh Dearest Loved

Syama , Please color our chunaris .

 

  1. Please color the chunaris that they will never fade, no matter if the washer washes it for my entire life.

 

  1. I donÂ’t want it red, nor do I want it green. I want it to the color of You, the color of Syama !

 

  1. Without having it colored, I will not return home, even if I have to wait my entire life.

 

  1. What is the lighter than water? What is lower than the earth? What is hotter than fire? What is the destruction of light?

 

  1. Knowledge ( jnana ) is lighter than water. Sin is lower than earth. Anger is hotter than fire, and lust is the destruction of light.

 

  1. The Lord of Mira, the courtly Giridhara , feels very close to the Lotus feet of the Lord, Hari , Syama !

 

REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:

This very popular bhajan written by Mira Bai was the second track of the Golden Avatara tape “ Bhajan

Sandhya ” by Anup

Jalota . It was rendered in Raga Kirvani in Kaherva

Tala .
